Trouble Lamp

Hi Andrew,

The lamp on the left with the larger plug, these plugs were the same as those used for 240v in homes for table lamps and the like, you could get a socket version of it with similar body. On the late '30's Vickers Light Tanks the socket version was fitted to the vehicles in several places to be used for the trouble lamp. The other plug is smaller and fits the red and black sockets on most British vehicles from 1940 era to 1990's.
